Product Description

THE SUSSEX CAROL - Very playable arrangement for GUITAR TRIO or larger ensemble
For Classical or Acoustic Guitar - sometimes it's erroneously listed here as Electric Guitar.

Derek Hasted writes "This is perfect as an easy-to-play addition to any Christmas Concert.

This charming English carol is arranged here for 3 early intermediate guitars (or a larger ensemble).

This was captured and written down by Cecil Sharp, the Folk Song collector, and by Ralph Vaughan Williams who heard it in Horsham, in Sussex.

My arrangement gives everyone a chance to play the tune, and each of the verses has a slightly different texture. There are also key changes so that each verse seems to move up a gear.

It can be played entirely in the first and second position, or more experienced players may want to take the higher notes further up the neck. The tune is indicated by a change of volume, but please feel free to add other volume and/or tone changes to make the performance yours.

I hope you enjoy playing this piece!"

This is one of a large and growing range of accessible ensembles from experienced arranger Derek Hasted, and is supplied as full score and parts. Derek's website at www.derek-hasted.co.uk/smp lists all his arrangements by title and by "number of instruments", with links to soundclips and sample score.
